Re: EAD without biometrics appointment
To confuse the issue even further the MSC# on the back of the check is very smudged and I am not sure of what it is.

LP, I suggest that you just wait and see whether you actually do get the card in the mail or not within the next few days...Calling the USCIS hotline would just confuse things further, and they would probably tell you wrong anyway...If they did find a way to approve you without your biometrics, so be it! Even though I do wonder how they did that! The picture that you sent in can be scanned, as you said, but what about the index fingerprint?!
Anyway, this IS the USCIS that we are dealing with, so everything is possible, Ladies and Gentlemen...

Re: EAD without biometrics appointment
I figure I'll just wait until the 91'st day and then go to the local office (June 10'th) if I haven't received it by then.

All that to say, I'm hoping you have the right number, and that the number on the back of your check does not look like a number that actually brings up an EAD application case...

Re: EAD without biometrics appointment
Well the number I deduced is for an EAD and the timing is about right...two days after the check was cashed. Time will tell.

You know, when I cashed in the check for my EAD, I too went online to see the back of the check and get my receipt number. Even though mine was pretty smudged too, I thought I had it right. I entered the number, and it said something like "Your application for change of status was received" or whatever. I was pretty panicked, thinking that they had messed up...But when I got my NOA, the receipt number was NOT the one I had read off the back of my check...Even if I was pretty sure I had read it right...When I actually had the right number off the NOA, I could not even recognize the number on the back of the check as LIKELY to be the right number...

So if you go on your 91st day without an NOA, it shouldn't be a problem since they don't give it back to you when you go for your biometrics. And I would think they should be able to take your biometrics real quick while you're there.
